Up in the PNW, they have this tradition of the Round the County Race on the 2nd weekend in November, a 2 day event circling around the San Juan Islands. Weather conditions can be quite non-balmy with...
So, are we back and running? Skip?
The track I found seemed to indicate that Lidia did cross over south of the bay and Yelapa. Any word on the status of the "Outstation"?
Thanks for the compliments, Ants. And don't fret not seeing the cat. She was not aboard for this sail...being an independent cat.
Thank you, Daydreamer, for the compliment. We were fortunate the other day to have someone with a good digital camera and a fine lens taking pictures.8647
If I remember correctly - and that is not a given - sailmaker, Don Goring was involved with a MORC hotrod name STARBUCK back in the late 60's/early 70's. Is Prince this the speedy craft?

We do enjoy your quizzes as well as the often wacky choices you tender. And the answers are entertaining as well.

Tom: Thanks for that image. Exquisite workmanship! The model would get stolen just to get the anchor.

Well done, Sleddog! One of your epic ones.
My better half commented this morning that MAGIC (and Archie, the Bengal) have introduced us to a fascinating bunch of people.
Many thanks. C&V&B
Thanks for the heads-up, MillyB. The Sleddog can be reticent to toot his well-earned horn. Congrats to the two Skips!
It opened fine, Skip and that was right down to the wire! Congratulations on your tactics.

Well done! And thanks for the blow-by-blow description (sorry about that). Sleddog might be a bit grey around the muzzle, but he still has his chops!
Pictures and videos are expected soon!

What a lovely model of the 'Bird! My hat is doffed to Paul Reck for the exquisite workmanship.
Skip, did you take any other photos of the model?
Happy Birthday, Sled. Our best to you and those in your life.

Sleddog:
Thanks so much for joining us as well as lending your expertise and delightful humor to these couple of days!. As all know, a boat is never finished and this certainly applies to MAGIC in...
Hi, Ants:
I was recently clued into your posting here by Sleddog and finally got around to checking it out. Lovely craft and Stone and Big Lagoons are indeed a treat! I second Alan's recommendations...

Jeez, Skip! I should've trimmed off the Irish Pennants draped hither and yon. :rolleyes:
Vicky wishes to Know how you plan to aid the critter to find its home? These characters are a bit notorious for going walkabout for navigation practice. The sail and mast are, no doubt, standing...
